Derby County forward Harry Wilson was the star for Wales as he scored the winning goal in their 1-0 victory over the Republic of Ireland in the UEFA Nations League.

The 21-year-old Liverpool loanee, just as he did at Old Trafford against Manchester United last month, produced a sublime free-kick by placing the ball in the top corner giving Darren Randolph no chance of keeping it out.

Fellow Ram Tom Lawrence played the full 90-minutes and put in an impressive performance for Ryan Giggs’s side at the Aviva Stadium.

Wales will now take on Denmark in their next UEFA Nations League match in Cardiff, followed by a friendly away at Albania.

Also involved was Derby defender Richard Keogh, who captained the Republic of Ireland in Dublin and played the full 90-minutes.

Martin O’Neill’s side are next in action against Northern Ireland in a friendly next month, before they face Denmark in their next UEFA Nations League match.
